Jenner is being sued by Howe’s stepchildren, who allege that Jenner was “careless and negligent” in the crash. Their suit alleges that Jenner’s vehicle hit Howe’s car, pushing it into oncoming traffic. According to the suit, Howe’s death “caused plaintiffs to suffer enormous damages and losses.” Jenner is also being sued by Jessica Steindorff, whose Prius was hit in the collision, which occurred on the Pacific Coast Highway.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has completed its investigation into the collision and has referred the cast to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office. According to reports, Jenner could face a manslaughter charge.
